# 6.40. subsections Macro

## Interface

The general syntax is:

      !subsections labels [; prefix] [; layout]

The arguments are:

Name | Type | Default | Rule
labels | string |  |
prefix | string | Topic | <Topic|Noprefix|noprefix>
layout | string | Left | <Left|Center|Right|None|left|center|right|none>

See Understanding Macro Interfaces, if necessary.

## Description

The subsections macro specifies the subsections in a topic.

## Examples

Typical usage is:

       H1: MyApp
       !subsections "Purpose,Usage,Description,Examples"

In this case, the subsections macro changes the id generated for the headings listed to:

       MyApp - heading

For HTML, it will also generate a line of jumps to the headings.

## Limitations & Future Directions

html is currently the only target for which a jump line is generated.
